A VOICE ROOTED IN HUMAN CONNECTION

TALENT WITH VER SATILITY.

There’s probably a photo somewhere of me on a stage in Chicago — eight years old, standing in front of a room that felt bigger than I was. I didn’t know exactly what I was doing yet, but I knew I wanted to hold people’s attention. I’ve been chasing that same feeling ever since.

I came up through music first — hip-hop, production, performance — and later spent years working as a graphic designer and creative professional. Both shaped how I approach this work more than anything else. Music taught me timing and rhythm — the difference between something that hits and something that just plays. Design taught me how people actually take things in — what they trust, what they ignore, and what makes something stick.

When I moved into voiceover, everything started to connect.

My work now spans Fox Sports, ESPN, UFC, and DAZN, along with national campaigns for brands like Dupixent, E*TRADE, Mr. Clean, UBS, Principal Financial, and more. I’ve had the chance to work across sports, commercial, and storytelling — including narration for Marvel and projects with Discovery Channel, as well as national spots for Broadway, including the revival of Gypsy.

In 2026, I was brought in live for the FIFA World Cup Final Draw 2026 in Washington, D.C. That wasn’t a remote session or a pickup — it was a moment that needed to be handled in the room, in real time. Being trusted with something like that says everything about how this work is viewed.

I’m represented by CESD in New York and Los Angeles, along with teams in Chicago and Atlanta, where I live with my wife and five kids. That part of my life keeps everything grounded. It reminds me that communication isn’t about performance for its own sake — it’s about making sure what you’re saying actually reaches someone.

I also create outside of voiceover. I’m the creator and executive producer of The Uptown Chronicles, an original animated series built around family, legacy, and the kind of stories I want my kids to grow up seeing.

At the end of the day, I don’t think of the voice as something separate.

It’s just how I show up.

And the goal is always the same — make it real enough that people feel it, not just hear it.
